our interest was to investigate the potentials of existing materials and products to generate space: transforming a standard, ordinary form
into an extraordinary one, creating an extensive spatial work,
starting with the smallest possible unit. in search of a product
with the potential of creating space and reflecting our faculty,
we came upon the folding metre stick. since a long time
it is used to meassure space. we decided to create
space with it. to get a stable structure, we developed
a knot by interlocking two metre sticks and putting
a lace around it. by adding the resulting crosses
by overlapping and screwing, we received a
strong horizontal structure, that could reach
a freestanding hight of 2.70m. the resulting
amorphous form consists of two walls made
out of 1.148 metre sticks, erected without
any further support by bending them to a
curved position.
